Bonjour Je dois réserver des sièges en Norvège Réservation obligatoire)L''application ne me propose que des billets papier, est ce normal ou ai je loupé un truc ? Ce n' est pas le cas pour les autres pays Suède notamment ou nous avons des e-billets Merci Pierre 

The DB App doesn’t say one is necessary at all but somehow the Interrail App says it’ll be required (from E8). (Pretty sure I’ve been on this train before and cannot recall ever getting one...)I’m looking to get back from Germany to England in July; Brussels is faster than Amsterdam but I’d like to avoid additional reservation fees (on top of the Eurostar ones).Any advice appreciated. I’ve not yet raised a ticket with the helpdesk...

Hello everyoneMy husband celebrates his 70th birthday next year and I’d like to organise a trip through various European destinations by train and at least one sleeper train.  As we haven’t been to Eastern Europe, I’m thinking of flying to Bulgaria or Poland and kicking off from there and working our way back to Brussels for a Eurostar back to London. I’d like a stopover in each location of say, 2 days but with trains between destinations having a proper dining car with a lovely culinary experience (1st class, I’m assuming) on each leg.  I don’t know whether it’s better to book individual journeys and accommodation at each stopover or whether to buy a Eurail pass. I’m roughly thinking that the whole trip will be about 10-14 days. Any advice on routing and/or ticketing most welcome from you seasoned travellers to help me make a truly memorable trip. Looking forward to you sharing your wisdom.  Many thanks. 

Are there London UK perks or reduced cost tours for Eurrail pass holders? eg. Shows: Stratford or elsewhere, tours

Hello there!I understand that many Eurail trains have it, but from my past experience with other trips I know you can't trust it 100%. I'm worried that at the worst moment it might drop out or be very very slow. So I'm thinking of getting an eSIM as a backup.I've been looking at TooSIM for Europe. They advertise an automatic network switching feature at the border. From what I've read, it works good across Europe and costs less than other eSIMs like Airalo right now. I need 10GB and TooSIM costs $17 while Airalo is $31 for the same data plan.I'll be crossing borders 2-3 times a day on the train. Will eSIM keep working while the train is moving or is the train Wi-Fi better for that? Has anyone tested this? Is a backup eSIM even necessary or has onboard Wi-Fi become better lately?

Hi, just want to ask should I buy interrail pass of eurail pass if I am a BNO visa holder from Hong Kong living in the UK for studying?

Hi there. I am new here and I would like to know if there is somekind of night trains in any itinerary. How can I get such kind information?

Dear Community I’m attempting to book seats on the IC 306 Hamburg to Malmo (Stockholm) 9:51-15:35 on Tuesday 26 May. Unfortunately, I’ve been unable to find a site or app where I can reserve seats. I’ve tried Eurail/Interail, DB, Snalltaget, DSB, ÖBB, etc. without success.Can anyone enlighten me on how I can make a reservation as it says seat reservations are required.Thanks in anticipation Steve Passey

I go on a trip in two weeks and wanted to start booking trains ahead of time. I haven’t activated my pass yet because I figured I should wait until like a day or two before leaving. If I want to start booking trains in advance, how can I choose when I’ll use travel days and when I don’t want to? And should I activate my pass to start booking?

Hi everyone,This is our first time interrailing as a family. And sometimes when we have gone on the website we can see a map with the route and other times we can’t - am I doing something wrong, or is the website too busy?

We really don’t want to have to go via Munich, and were thinking that Innsbruck to Chur might be scenic.Any thoughts, recommendations?

Hello everyone,I have won the DiscoverEU pass and with it comes 4 free seat reservations. I have used 3 of them but would like to keep the last one for a different journey. When trying to book a seat reservation it only allows me to use the free credit. How can i pay for it instead of using the seat reservation?any help would be appreciated!kind regards, Oscar

Newbie here!  I have a trip with some journeys listed. I haven't activated my pass yet as I dont leave until September. On my trip list of journeys I dont see the yellow toggle on/off to add or remove to my pass.  Do I only get that after I activate my pass?

Hi there - I live in the UK but am coming back from a holiday in Italy in June with family, but plan to go:Day 1: Rome-ZurichDay 2: Zurich-London….and then a couple of weeks later:Day 3: London-ParisDay 4: Paris-London….using the “4 days in one month” of an Interrail pass. Is this thing allowable? I was reading about how you can only use one entrance/exit in into a “home country” - but I’m not starting off from my home country, so I’m a bit confused if this will work...Any help appreciated with this technicality !

As part of my upcoming trip, I booked a reservation on a Eurocity train between Zurich HB and Milano through the Eurail website. Listed under “conditions of use” on the ticket it says “This ticket is valid only when printed with a laserjet or inkjet printer on a white A4 sheet of paper, blank on both sides, in portrait format (vertical) and in the original, unchanged font size. Under no circumstances may it be presented on other media (electronic, screen, etc.).” I live in the United States and do not have easy access to A4 paper. Can I get away with 8.5”x11” paper as is commonly found here, since they are very similar? Can they print it for me at the Zurich train station? Is there a way to add this to my apple wallet with every other reservation I have instead? Thanks in advance.

We need seat reservations for Budapest to Cluj Napoca in two weeks time. MAV Hungary website. Repeated attempts on MAV Hungary website that Interrail links to have failed. We arrive in Budapest 36 hours before so would like to have the reservations before we set out on our trip.  

Hi! Me and my boys are on a trip right now. We have the Global Pass 1st Class and we are going from Vienna Hbf to Trieste Centrale on 13/05/26.When I put the exact train into my rail planner it says that we need a supplement on this route (to pass the boarder I think)Is this required for pass holders and does 1st class have anything to say in this case? Thank you. 

Hi everyone,my friend Clemens (18) and I, Anton (19) are doing an Interrail trip through several Balkan countries this summer. We start from Nuremberg on July 21st, arrive in Sarajevo on July 22nd, and continue through the Balkans before finishing in Chișinău on August 7th.Originally, a third friend wanted to join us, so we already booked a few accommodations and one bus ticket for him — but he dropped out .So if anyone around our age is interested in joining for parts of the trip, meeting up on the way, or wants more details about the route, feel free to message me on insta @clem.stnr .

Hi All,New to rail travel!Earlier in the month i arranged a trip. London > France > Italy > Switzerland > London (Via France).It’s for 4 people and includes several reserved seats over a two week period.On the day i “sorted” the trip i added all the details to the app and all the journeys were there.This included a trip from Basel (12:34) > Paris Gare De Lyon (15:38) on the 7th June ahead of getting the Eurostar at at 6pm.I am now trying to add the journeys to the other travelers apps. but we can not find this journey. There are also no other options (except for ones that require multiple changes). Does this journey still exist? this was also a journey that required a reservation and was relatively expensive. Last thing we want is to rely on this train, to find out it doesn’t exist and then we miss our Eurostar journey!Any help much appreciated.

Is it possible for my assistant to download and set up my trip on her device and activate my passes, and then I log in on my device and all the trips and passes are there?

Hi,I was thinking of doing a long travel day, and my last train switch would be at 23:59 (still same travel day). I was wondering, if my train has delays and only comes at 00:20… is this a new travel day then?Thank you in advance!

Ich möchte im Oktober nach England und im Eurostar sind angeblich keine Sitzplätze mehr buchbar, obwohl für den Zug noch Tickets zu kaufen sind. Kann mir da jemand helfen? 

Me and my girlfriend bought two global passes. She added me to her trip, but in my mobile app nothing changed and i cant ser the reservations that She made. There is something we can do? Are we doing something wrong? Thank you Im advance

I purchased a pass a while back - whenever I go to book travel, I am stopped from selecting open seats. There is no option to do so? How on earth do I reserve seats in advance? This is absolutely maddening

Hi, I left some comments on this post:I have been waiting for more than 24 hours and can’t seem to see my comment and have not received any updates. Can anyone let me know why? Do moderators not allow comments? Are people being silenced on this post? I think this is a very bad sign of low transparency and suppression and makes me think that there is probably a huge number of people who wrote in to disagree and are not being allowed to share their thoughts in the name of “moderation”. I want to believe this is not the case but I am running out of explanations that would make sense. Thanks
